Psychiatric Hospital Protects Patients and Staff With Galaxy Control Systems
Highland-Clarksburg Hospital, a 150-bed behavioral psychiatric center located in Clarksburg, W.V., underwent a renovation that included a state-of-the-art security system designed to protect the hospital’s patients and staff as well as the surrounding community. The hospital’s patients include forensics patients (deemed unfit to stand trial or non restorable), dual-diagnosis substance abuse patients, children and adolescents and intellectually challenged individuals.
After it moved to a new facility in 2010, United Hospital Center donated a 415,000-square-foot former critical care hospital building to Highland-Clarksburg Hospital. Renovation commenced in January 2013, the project was fast-tracked, and the center officially opened its $23 million renovation in August 2013.
